One of my coworkers got a promotion and is moving away. We are having a party and I volunteered the meat. Went to the grocer for a packer tonight and they were wiped out. Asked the butcher and he went to the back all the had was this 18+ lb monster. With limited options I took it will make due. I thought about cutting off a couple of pounds of flat to save and grind but my wife said do it all and we can freeze some for later if we need to. It lost about 3 lbs of hard fat trimming it up. I rubbed it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Onto the egg stabilized at 250 draped over a rib rack to make it fit. Oak for smoke. Will post more later

Large egg. Stalled at 151 since I woke up an hour ago 11 hours into the cook. Egg was rock solid just a click south of 250 when I got up. I'm gonna bump it up to about 325 and power this thing home.

13 hrs in running at 325 for the last 2.5 hours 180 internal. Snapped a quick pick, barks building nicely considering there is no sugar in the rub.

Nice mahogany color - looks great! I'm always amazed by how much these things shrink when it's all said and done."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

Please post how many lbs you end up with.Green egg, dead animal and alcohol. The "Boro".. TN

@henapple it tipped the scales at 9 lbs 9.5 ounces after the cool before FTC. So through trimming and cooking my $3/pound brisket is now closer to $6/pound. I just pulled it for the rest.Probed like butter everywhere but I small area of the flat. It was reading 195-205 all over I think the rest will help with the tough spot. It had a nice jiggle when it went onto the counter.
